f fcey are , still canning apples,
-jhey will celebrate Thanksgiving
today, but they will be at the
apples again tomorrow, with a
possibility of, finishing the sea
son's rnn i before night, bat with
possibility of hanging over till
Saturday. 7 :. ',
-V May be they are doing this as
Joyal Salemites, so that the year's
apple pack may be sure to exceed
teat of last. year. The canneries
ef Marion county packed 109,00
cases of apples last year. How
many this year is not yet known,
hut it will be a good many more.
V,;!-. " Makes Long Season
V.The Hunt people commenced
their year's pack ' on gooseberries
away back last spring it " must
seem like a date in ancient history
to them, after being'in a rush the
whole spring through, and; the
summer - and fall long, and now
into the shank of the winter.
It looked like a lot of goose
berries as they tame in and went
through the ' processes of being
put into tin cans and then into
the warehouses and onto the
freight cars; to be followed by
strawberries, cherries, loganber
ries, raspberries, blackberries,
pears, prunes, squashes i-and ap
ples, and so on and in fact each
crop did not follow the other.
Some of them stepped on the heels
of some of the others. j i
Di.l You Know That? j
By the 'way,, did you know that
this big jHunt cannery Is in at
least one : respect the finest can
nery in the United StateB, or in
any other old country? I W. O.
Allen, manager, got an idea into
hsi head that fruit could be con
veyed to the cans, washed and
sorted all in one operation. He
was the only man in the world
who had the nerve to work out
the idea, which he began to do
last year,! ami perfected it this
year. j - -'j ' i
Take any fruit, from gooseber
ries to apples, and at the Hunt
cannery it is emptied into the
end of long troughs, onto round
moving endless rubber belts. These
round rubber belts are arranged
so that they will release the small
fruit early in its progress and the
larger sizes later, thus doing the
sorting as to size automatically;
also the endless belts pass through
a stream I of running water, by
which the fruit is cleaned auto
matically, with the aid of, brushes
etc.
' So the large sizes go into the
cans for those sizes, and the small
sizes into their cans. This is true
of -all fruits put throng'a 'that
cannery. They ; are conveyed,
washed and cleaned and sorted all
at one operation, mechanically,
with the endless round rubber
belt , and the running water ar
rangement. Incidentally, there is
a large saving of labor otherwise
employed in carting Uhe fruit
from place to place in the cannery.
Not Used Elsewhere ; t
Mr. Allen has patented this pro
cess, and it is not in use elsewhere
in the world. However, the Hunt
Bros, company will Install the sys
tem In one of Its canneries in
Washington the coming year, and
perhaps in all of them -later
It is worth noting that in Sa
lem, Oregon, you may see one of
the finest canneries in the world,
and one of the; most interesting;
and with a process that you could
not see elsewhere if you went the
wide world over, v
FORBES TRIAL OPENS;
FRAUD CHARGE GROWS

elaborated in great detail by Col.
Easby-Smith, who was only half
through when court adjourned for
the Thanksgiving day recess until
Friday morning.
Mortimer, who was described by
the government counsel as the
Vpaid informant," was pictured Jy
Col. Easby-Smith as a "wholesaled
bootlegger, who testified he had
received $100, 000 for his part in
the illegal withdrawal of 4.Q0Q
cases of whiskey, at Pittsburgh In
1919."
Meeting Described
Forbes met - Mortimer through
mutual acquaintance with the
Harding family, Col. Easby-Smith
continued, President Harding's sis
ter, "Mrs. Caroline Votaw, intro
ducing him to Mrs. Mortimer, and
the latter Introducing her hus
band. Mrs. v Mortimer, who was
Miss Tallage of Philadelphia, had
long been friends fit the Harding
family, and the defense Indicated
phe would bo one of their chief
witnesses. The Mortimers accom
panied Forbes on the trip to the
Pacific coast that was described
when the senate committee inves
tigated the veterans bureau and
which formed the principal part
of the material for the Indictment.
On this trip, Mr. Crim declared,
it would be shown that Mortimer
signed a $15,000 note to Mr.
Thompson and gave Forbes $5,000
of it. It was this payment, Col.
Easby-Smith declared, that defense
testimony would show "a physical
impossibility." ' ' V 4
On other trips mentioned by the
prosecution it was declared by Col.
Easby-Smith the defense testi
mony would show that Dr. Stanley
RInehart and other officials of
the veterans bureau and the war
and navy departments were mem
bers of the party, and these were
purely official inspection trips. (
